《fall into darkness》Chapter 71: Return
Advertisement
puff! puff!
Du Dian cooperated with Scott and Mia, and quickly killed the walking corpses that came one after another.
Smelling the smell of walking corpses moving in the distance, Du Di'an said: "It is not suitable to stay here for a long time, we have to leave here immediately."
Knowing that the fight just now would probably lead to other walking corpses, Scott couldn't take a rest. He picked up the luggage that had been left in front of the shop during the fight, and opened a parchment scroll. He quickly found his current location and put away the map. , said to Du Di'an: "Follow me, the eighth district is no longer safe, we have to return to the ninth district."
Du Di'an had this intention, nodded slightly, raised his hand and greeted Zach in the shop.
Zach ran quickly and said in surprise: "I knew you would survive." Speaking of this, he seemed to want to ask something. When he saw Du Dian blinking his eyes, he suddenly woke up, and immediately stopped talking, but his face was full of joy. smiling.
Seeing that the danger was lifted, the three consortium scavengers and the rookie boy who were hiding in the shop quickly followed Zach out and looked at the bitten young man who was bleeding profusely on the ground, with a complicated and ugly expression.
Mia noticed their gaze, snorted coldly, and said in disgust, "Coward! When the walking corpse bit his throat earlier, you had a chance to kill it, but ran away in fright. You are not as brave as a child. Shame!" The child she was referring to was naturally Zach who fought back in the end.
The three looked ashamed, gritted their teeth, and dared not answer.
The newcomer boy who ran away together lowered his head tremblingly, but secretly looked at Du Dian in front of him from the corner of his eyes, as if he wanted to say something, but did not dare to speak.
Scott glanced at a few of them, sighed, shook his head slightly, and said to Du Di'an, "Let's go."
Du Dian nodded, glanced at the surrounding environment, secretly wrote down this place, and then came back to get the bow and arrow and the dark blue ball package when he found time.
The crowd followed Scott and crept along the edge of the street.
Along the way, Du Dian fully felt the benefits of his keen sense of smell. When he smelled the smell of a large group of walking corpses from a distance, he would suggest that Scott take a detour. If he encounters two or three, he will kill them directly.

After seeing Du Di'an's extraordinary power, Scott no longer dared to despise Du Di'an's right to speak because of his age, so he adopted the several detours proposed by Du Di'an one by one. After a long journey, everyone finally came out of the eighth district and returned to the ninth district, which had been scavenged more than ten times.
After arriving in the ninth district, the tense nerves of Scott and the others finally relaxed, but they did not dare to stay near the boundary line, and continued to move forward and penetrated deep into the ninth district. Only then did they feel completely relieved.
Along the way, no one saw a walking corpse, not even a small monster like a bone-eating rat.
And in the shops on both sides of the dilapidated streets in the ninth district, basically nothing remains - except for the broken stones.
"Finally out." Scott sighed lightly, stopped walking nervously, and found a clean place to sit and rest at will.
Mia put her luggage on the gravel aside, looked at Du Dian curiously, and said, "You are a scavenger who just joined the consortium. I heard that you are a seed object, so you have been blessed twice, but only two. How can it have such a strong power, did you pick up any other treasures?"
Hearing this, Scott and the three consortium scavengers, as well as the new boy, all looked over. They were very curious about this issue, but they were in the eighth district before, and there would be walking corpses around at any time. They were worried about talking. The voice attracted the walking corpse, so he couldn't hold back.
There may be another reason, - worried that such a rash inquiry will cause Du Di'an to be unhappy and abandon them in the eighth district.
Du Di'an was prepared and said: "I don't know the reason, but I passed out when I ran for my life. When I woke up, I felt that I was much stronger than before." This is half-truth and half-truth, even if the consortium traces it, he There are also arguments.
Scott and Mia looked at each other, puzzled.
Suddenly, Mia thought of something, and her face changed slightly: "You, you weren't bitten by a walking corpse, right?"
Hearing this, the three consortium scavengers sitting next to Du Di'an were stunned, and immediately got up and stayed seven or eight meters away from Du Di'an.

Instead, Du Dian was curious and said, "If you are bitten by a walking corpse, won't it turn into a walking corpse?"
Scott looked ugly and said: "You are right, but the speed of turning into a walking corpse depends on the injury. If you rub some skin, the infection will slow down a lot... How long has it been since you woke up?"
"long time."
"In general, the slowest infection rate is three days." Scott looked at Du Dian and said, "That is to say, if you are infected, in the next two and a half days, you will completely become inactive. If the corpse does not turn into a walking corpse after two and a half days, it means that it is not infected."
Du Di'an nodded slightly, he was naturally not infected by a walking corpse.
However, Scott's remarks still made him feel a little nervous. I wonder if the blood-colored worm is an infection?
"We have been outside the wall for four days, and we will return to the wall in six days." Scott looked at Du Di'an, hesitated, and said, "It's better for us to separate for the time being."
Du Dian glanced at a few of them. Except for Zach's worried face, the others had more or less fear in their eyes, just like the fear of walking corpses, he couldn't help but smile and said softly: "Okay, but I want to borrow your map for a while, lest I get separated and I can't find my way back."
"Okay." Scott agreed immediately without hesitation.
Du Dian looked back at Zach, smiled, and said, "I'm going to find Macon and Sham, don't worry, I'll be fine, wait for me here."
Zach's eyes were red, and he gritted his teeth tightly, saying: "It's all my fault, we drag you down, I'm sorry Dean, I'm sorry..."
"What nonsense is said, it's all brothers." Du Di'an laughed.
Zach couldn't help bursting into tears and sobbed softly.
Scott, Mia and the others were silent.
Du Dian waved his hand, took the map that Scott carefully handed over, and turned to leave.
...
...
After disappearing from the sight of Scott and others, Du Dian immediately ran at full speed, followed the previous route back to the eighth district, and collected the dark blue balls in the brains of the walking corpses killed along the way.
It didn't take long for him to return to the location where he stored the bows and arrows. After finding the bows and arrows and the dark blue balls from the bottom of the scrapped car, he immediately searched the surrounding smells for Macon and Sham.
When you encounter a lone walking corpse along the way, kill it directly.
Although his fighting technique is still very immature, with the crushing speed and strength, he can completely kill the walking corpse before it can pounce.
However, if he encounters more than three walking corpses at the same time, Du Dian can only run for his life. After all, he is rushed up in a swarm, no matter how fast he is, he will be caught. Once caught, he will be gradually surrounded.
This is the horror of corpses, even hunters dare not be approached by corpses.
Two days later, Du Dian finally found Macon hiding in a ruined building. The reason why he was able to find him was traced from the smell of his excrement. This also taught Du Di'an a little bit. In the future, in the wilderness, you must not defecate anywhere. Even if you can't bear it, you must bury it with soil and leave as soon as possible without leaving a trace.
After Du Dian sent Macon back to the ninth district, he just wanted to return to the eighth district to continue looking for Sham, but suddenly he smelled the smell of Sham in the ninth district, which made him stunned.
Following the scent, Du Di'an found the lonely Sham in the ninth district, leaving him speechless. Unexpectedly, the kid ran back here by himself.
After seeing that the three of them were all safe and sound, a big stone in Du Di'an's mouth was finally released. After the three of them were settled, Du Di'an returned to the eighth district and started his hunting walking corpse plan!
In the blink of an eye, four days passed.
The ten-day period for everyone to come outside the wall has come.

Cheep!?
Charles Monroe survived the disappearance of his parents, did his best to hold things together for himself and his sister. He survived when she, too, vanished, leaving behind nothing but a cryptic note. He was devastated, but he kept moving forward as best he could. Cancer didn’t put him down, and after suffering through several rounds of chemotherapy, Charles Monroe thought that things might finally be looking up. That is, until a virulent strain of ebola swept through the city. With his immune system strained as it is, the odds don’t look good for Charles. Now, on the bridge between life and death, he hears a voice claiming to know where his family went. It claims that it needs his help and that it can give him a second life, one far away from all the pain he’s ever known. So, Charles answers as any reasonable person would. He says no. Charles isn't ready or willing to die yet. But, as with everything else to this point, even his choice to keep fighting is taken from him all too soon. With no other option but the dark oblivion of death, Charles chooses to make a deal with the spirit of a distant world that's seeking a wild card in its battle against the gods, monsters, and mortals that threaten its existence. Someday, he’ll find where his family went. Someday, he’ll uphold his end of the bargain and hunt beings powerful beyond anything he’s ever known. Someday, he might even – hatch? “CHEEP!?” Things to Know: -Cheep!? Will release on a minimum weekly schedule. -After a backlog of chapters, posting will slow, but in the interim you can expect a chapter a day up until roughly 25 chapters. -This story at times will potentially carry some heavy moments, but the tone is intended to be lighter overall. -There are invisible game-like elements in this story, but nothing so concrete as a dedicated gamelit novel. -I personally have some issues with anxiety, so I may or may not interact with the community a lot. I'll try if anyone has questions, but I can't guarantee that it'll be consistent. -MC is a non-human lead, and will never actually become human. Romance will potentially happen between side-characters, but not with the MC. -MC IS NOT THE ONLY VIEW POINT. I have to put that out there because people sometimes hate alternate PoV's in a story. None of them will be filler, and they'll be there only to give a little bit more nuance and meaning to the world that the MC has stepped in, or is about to be imminently important. I'll try to keep them down, but this also helps to prevent me from burning out getting trapped in one view. -Most of all, I hope that this story is enjoyable to you, and that you have a great time reading it! -Written by Michael Adams, Cowritten/Edited by Summer Kent
